My attempts to restrain the urge to speak my mind comes across as me being arrogant apparently. So I just travel instead.

Geographer. I make magical mapping websites.

I’m staying on the hellsite for as long as it remains functional, but for those migrating over to Mastodon, you can find me here:

Final thought on this (more detailed thread earlier on my feed): it is pretty fucking callous to hype a feature as if it’s yours when you fired the team that thought of it, built it, and *did a public beta of it* the day before. https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1589009644114284544

A reminder that Elmo is setting his new price structure where he is because he made such a humiliatingly bad deal to buy Twitter. He’s asking you to subsidise his recklessness.

“With Twitter in chaos, Mastodon is on fire”

By @rachelmetz @CNN

“In the week since Elon Musk took over Twitter, the number of people signing up for a small social network called Mastodon has surged. You may not have heard of Mastodon, which has been around since 2016, but now it’s growing rapidly.”

If you don’t pay the $8 your tweets will be suppressed by an algorithm. Not making this shit up he said it to a room of investors yesterday & claimed this would solve hate speech. “You’ll have to scroll really far to see unverified users”

Epilogue:

Elno is now threatening to go “thermonuclear” on these brands - attacking their reputation with his army of right-wingers and Tesla cultists.

This is all self-inflicted. He simply doesn’t have the maturity or discipline to keep Twitter sustainable as a business.

3/ Elno is a billionaire. He can handle it. He calls a meeting for him to calm down Twitter’s advertisers.

Now, before I tell this part, please understand. Twitter advertising is an afterthought for these guys. A fraction of a fraction. A pack of gum you get at the checkout.

6/ And now, he’s trying to blame his plans for a glorious free speech service on people using free speech.

Because of course it couldn’t be him.

Twitter’s 2023 advertising is nonexistent. That’s why this $8 a month thing is being pushed. He wants YOU to pay for his mistake.

1/ Here’s everything we know about the mass Twitter advertising exodus in plain language.

So, Elno acquires Twitter and advertisers are FREAKED. Would be a good time to reassure them, right?

Except Twitter’s Chief Revenue officer @[email protected] quits on Friday. Literally walks out.
